Raising property taxes by almost 21% just doesn’t make sense to property owners at this time. People are struggling to make a living and that much of an increase would cause a lot of delinquent property taxes and cause some people to lose their home & property. Plus it would have a snowball affect for residents having to do without food and clothing. Besides, the cost of gasoline and propane is already created a hardship. It’s easy to sit behind a desk and dream of ways to give yourself a feather in your hat at the taxpayers expense but this is ridiculous. They mislead the voters and kept the issue very quiet thinking they could sneak the bond passage in but it didn’t work this time nor will it work the next time. Why don’t they use the state lottery money for protecting and educating our children???????????

Fed-up!

When you have to use retirement saved up to pay for already high property taxes, who wants to pay more. What about all those people living in our school district who do not own property and get a free ride in our school. The tax laws are outdated and should be changed. But you know who has to change them, yes our lawmakers and they sure will not! I have complained about my property taxes and I was told if they come and look at my property they may increase! How about that. It is the same as usual, tax more, tax more, etc.

You know, at the beginning of The Wizard of Oz, after Dorothy’s house falls on the witch of the east and “kills” her, then the sister witch shows up from the west. The little guards marching around could have just shot the witch and saved Dorothy a lot of trouble, because the first witch could die from a house. Think about it.
